Antoine Fuqua’s latest film Emancipation sees him collaborate with Will Smith on a slavery drama, with its first trailer dropping and leading to criticism for its depiction of slavery.
Based on the true story of a slave known as Gordon or “Whipped Peter”, it sees the events which spark the abolition of slavery as people realized the unjust and cruelty of the American slavery system. Smith plays Peter in the film written by William N. Collage, who it must be noted is a white man.
